WinMerge / Github / StackOverFlow / Track - AutoIt Syntax Highlighting

[water]

Looks good 👍

[mLipok]

Thanks to MOD for moving from Chat to AutoIt Technical Discussion

[mLipok]

Take a look here:

https://github.com/WinMerge/winmerge/issues/641

If i do anything wrong in this GitHub Issue, please correct me here or directly on github.

 

Especaially about this statement:
 

  Quote

btw.
I think that the simplest RegExp for catching such strings ( variables in AutoIt ) should start from $ sign and end before any white characters or dot or comma.

EDIT:
I found better way to catching such strings .... tested with PCRE
(?i)($[\w]+)

Use \$ as in PCRE $ alone has its own meaning

Nice findings, eagle eye

Ah.. GitHub show this incorrectly as I do not use QUTES when I pass it to my Issue reporting.
Of course screenshots

it was submited as:

  Quote

(?i)(\$[\w]+)

Expand  

now is corrected as:

  Quote

`(?i)(\$[\w]+)`

On GitHub now it looks like

@mLipok
Using ranges [] with just \w in it is not useful is this case.
You can just use \w+ without any square brackets, so the final pattern should look like:

'(?i)\$\w+'

But, in this case, you may find substitution in a StringRegExpReplace() function (and many others wrong results), like the following example:

Test()

Func Test()

    Local $str = "This is a string with $dollar sign!"

    ConsoleWrite("Before: " & $str & @CRLF & _
                 "After : " & StringRegExpReplace($str, "\$(\w+)", "no more $1") & @CRLF)

EndFunc

With the result: https://regex101.com/r/sh4osq/1/

Thanks @FrancescoDiMuro fixed.

What about such version:

\$\w+

I mean without using     (?i)

Edit: take a look again at this link: https://github.com/WinMerge/winmerge/issues/641

@mLipok
In such case, you can omit the (?i) modifier since there are no letters which have to be in a particular case, also remembering that AutoIt is case-insensitive, so no need to add that modifier at all to find variables

We must remeber that we are talking about WinMerge which is developed in C++ (i think so) and can use different RegExp modules.

btw. I also added some testing data for WinMerge dev.

Yes, it seems so.
I was trying to understand how different scenario's (like the one I posted earlier) would be managed to prevent wrong results.

[mLipok]

I was searching how AutoIt code is highlighted on Track.
As for now I found this:

https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/WikiHtml
https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/WikiProcessors
https://pygments.org/languages/#
https://pygments.org/docs/lexers/
https://github.com/pygments/pygments/blob/master/pygments/lexers/automation.py
 

Could somebody confirm that Track use pygments lexer ?

btw.

This version could be taken from:

https://github.com/WinMerge/winmerge/pull/753

Added #CS #CE support .... as so far only lower case #cs #ce was supported.

Do you ever had a need to look in your code on Mobile devices like smartphone ?

Currently I switch to this solution:

There is AutoIt code highlighting.

[mLipok]

Today I was working on dark Theme on the forum with my Chrome browser, and here are my effects:

The code :

; #FUNCTION# ====================================================================================================================
; Author ........: Cephas <cephas at clergy dot net>
; Modified.......: Jos - added $iStart parameter and logic, Ultima - added $iEnd parameter, make use of _ArrayToString() instead of duplicating efforts; Melba23 - added 2D support
; ===============================================================================================================================
Func _ArrayToClip(Const ByRef $aArray, $sDelim_Col = "|", $iStart_Row = -1, $iEnd_Row = -1, $sDelim_Row = @CRLF, $iStart_Col = -1, $iEnd_Col = -1)
    Local $sResult = _ArrayToString($aArray, $sDelim_Col, $iStart_Row, $iEnd_Row, $sDelim_Row, $iStart_Col, $iEnd_Col)
    If @error Then Return SetError(@error, 0, 0)
    If ClipPut($sResult) Then Return 1
    Return SetError(-1, 0, 0)
EndFunc   ;==>_ArrayToClip

The style looks nice, but it sadly doesn't work for me

If you have the time can you try it on Firefox? If not I can take a look when I am free.

[mLipok]

Does this CSS style tool works on FireFox ?

Yes, that's where I use it as FF is my default browser.
